Amazing Grace (cont. from p1) AI don=t know what to say,@ laughed a flustered Mandy Pope as she was swarmed in the hallway of the pavilion by the press and well wishers soon after signing the $10-million ticket. AShe=s beautiful. You look at her, and she=s everything a racehorse should be, she did everything a racehorse could do, and she has a wonderful attitude. She=s very sweet; she would just about put her head in my lap when I went up to see her. She=s the epitome of what we=re all trying to breed, as far as conformation and racing ability goes. Hopefully, she=ll pass that on to her foals.@ Havre de Grace Havre de Grace was Fasig-Tipton photo consigned by Taylor Made Sales on behalf of the man who raced her to three Grade I wins and that Horse of the Year title, Fox Hill Farm=s Rick Porter. Porter patiently waited to offer Pope his thanks, and offered afterwards, AIt was exciting. [Havre de Grace] is the whole package. I'm really glad she's going to Mandy and is going to stay in this country. I hope she loves the horse as much as we did.@ Asked if he expected anything in the $10 million range, Porter said, ANo. We set a very reasonable reserve, and I'm very surprised she brought this kind of money. But I think she's worth it. They said it before: she has amazing talent, amazing beauty, an amazing pedigree, and amazing grace.@ Porter was referencing the Taylor Made-produced video that Fasig played to a dimmed house just prior to Havre de Grace entering the ring. Following the video, Fasig=s Terence Collier offered his own tribute, quoting Shakespeare, A>Some are born great, some have greatness thrust upon them, and some achieve greatness.= Havre de Grace achieved greatness,@ said Collier. How the War Was Won... A standing room-only crowd stood quietly appreciative as bidding got going, but the din began to rise as action, in half-million increments, sped to the $5-million mark. At around $6 million, things slowed a bit, and bidding fell into $200,000 and $300,000 salvos that pushed the price on the board to $7 million. Pope had the money at that point. AI thought we had her there,@ Pope later admitted. AWe had her value at between $6 and $8 million, and that was right in the middle where I was comfortable.@ But Collier got on the mic and reminded the crowd of the unique offering at hand, and the action rebroke in earnest, with at least two other groups getting back in. Pope and Brothers kept at it, though, and came away with the big prize. AThis was more than I thought she=d bring,@ admitted Pope. ABut it is a once-in-a-lifetime shot, and I=m taking a shot at it. We=ll see what happens. I hope she knows what she=s worth and has nice babies!@ Cont. p5

Average Up and Gross Doubles (cont. from p1) AThe only way you=re able to have a sale like this is to have consignors and owners that bring you the product,@ Browning said. AIt gets old saying it, but it begins and ends with the horse, but that=s the reality. We were able to have a sale like this tonight because people entrusted us with their very, very best. When they do that, hopefully it raises your game, and hopefully our game was raised. It was a tremendous sale, and we couldn=t be happier.@ Interestingly, there was evidence that, despite the big increases at the top, that the market was largely stable from a year ago. The median actually showed a modest decline, dipping 5% to $190,000, and the number of horses that brought $500,000 or more were roughly the same: 25 this year compared to 22 last term. The RNA rate was also up considerably, from 27.5% in 2011 to 35.1% this term. But there=s little doubt last night=s auction will put a little spring into the step of many breeders.

Northern Farm Still Targeting American Champs Since the recession hit America in 2008, there has been a steady stream of high-quality mares leaving the country. The flow of bloodstock overseas is nothing new, but the reasons for the recent exodus include the weak dollar, which created exchange rates favorable to some overseas buyers, particularly against the Japanese Yen. Katsumi Yoshida, of Northern Farm in Japan, has been a willing buyer, and he continued to add to his collection of American champion mares Monday night at Fasig-Tipton's November sale with five purchases for $5.77-million. Yoshida's acquisitions included Grade I winner Tapitsfly (Tapit) for $1.85 million and 2011 champion female sprinter Musical Romance (Concorde's Tune) for $1.6 million. Musical Romance was at least the fourth U.S. champion Yoshida purchased at auction in Lexington over the last four years. He bought America's three-time champion mare and Horse of the Year for $2.25 million at the 2009 Keeneland November sale. Yoshida also bought 2010 champion female sprinter Dubai Majesty for $1.1 million at Fasig-Tipton November the year of her championship. The previous year he purchased champion older mare Ginger Punch for $1.6 million, again at Fasig-Tipton. Yoshida's son Shunsuke represented his father at the sale on Monday. He talked about what Northern Farm looks for at the American breeding stock sales, and why they have been able to buy so many champions here recently. "Of course we want a good individual, but sometimes we want a good pedigree, and sometimes we want good performance. We have many good stallions in Japan and we want to match up good mares with them," Shunsuke Yoshida said. "We value European mares also very good, but it is very difficult to buy good European bloodstock. I think here it is a little bit easier for us to buy good broodmares." Musical Romance finished sixth in the the 2012 GI Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Sprint, a race she won during her championship season last year. Catalogued as hip 118, the 5-year-old Concorde's Tune mare was consigned by Three Chimney Sales, agent. "We thought Musical Romance was a good-looking mare, and of course she was a champion mare sprinter last year, and those things attract us," Yoshida said.
